 The best cat book I have EVER read!! November 4, 1998
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I think this is a really cool book. Norton must be the coolest, best cat in the world. This book was cute and funny. The many incidents throughout the book were unbelievable. I think the cat could have been talked about more. I am going to buy it really soon, and I also hope to read the cat who went to paris.
 And again: Poor Norton March 30, 1998

Having enjoyed "A Cat in Paris", having lived in the City of Lights myself, and being a confessing and incorrigible cat lover, no less than three friends gave me a copy each of "A Cat abroad" for my birthday. I still appreciate their consideration, but would these dear, well-meaning people had spent their money on something more exciting, like books on "The Swiss Social Security System of the late 1800s" or even "Jane Fonda's Killer workout", all of which would have been a lot more enjoyable than the collected adventures of not Norton the Cat but Peter the puff-chested, name-dropping and show-offish author. I don't need to go through all the details again (see krupag@interquest.de's comments below; he or she is right on). Norton figures as a minor detail, and most of the time the reader will only be informed on what can of catfood little Furry dined on at any one specific event that otherwise revolves entirely about the author himself. And of course how much people admire him (Peter, not Norton) for such a great cat. The one credit that I do give Peter Gethers is that he writes a lot of nice things about my beloved France (let's just disregard the painful blunders that he makes when trying to bring French words across). Bottom line: please, my friends, if you read this - don't give me any more Peter Gethers books - see suggestions above!
